Gem of a concert in honour of Queen

The Queen took her seat in the royal box for her star-studded diamond jubilee concert last night, but was without the Duke of Edinburgh who has been hospitalised.

The Queen arrived wearing a stunning cocktail dress of gold lame designed by Angela Kelly under a dark cape.

The dress had sweeping trimmings of antique gold lace and deep olive, and was adorned with Swarovski crystals.
